Pass arguments to indesign script from command prompt

[kakyan]

I'm able to run the script but not able to pass arguments to the script.How to do this.

Hoping to prompt others to offer better ideas, I will say that I have written the javascript end of a machine that works like this: a VB script creates a specially named system variable that is read and used by a javascript. Presumably, the command line could do that same thing.

What if you share your code ?

How to run .bat file with arguments

[Robert Kyle]

I think the OP was looking for a way to pass data from the command line to an InDesign script. What I was suggesting was setting an new environment variable from the command line, as opposed to saving a standard environment variable into a text file. Once that is done, a javascript can access that variable with the $.getenv() method.
